We transplanted corn for the first time last year.We never could imagine making enough money on corn to make it worthwhile, but when you hit that early market...We decided it was worth it after all. We've been transplanting our okra for a few years now and really like having a uniform stand and much earlier harvest. The down side with okra, at least for us, is it starts bearing when it is about knee high. You stay permanently bent over after that! Last year we were a little late getting the okra out, and the plants were a little taller than we would have liked. We had one of our infamous 60 mph winds come through and it bent the okra over. Then, it grew straight again, so we had a harder time picking than we normally would have. The plants were sort of "S" shaped. My back will never be the same again.
